AKG C 3000b

March 7, 2009

Rating: 10/10

I bought a pair of these mics because I wanted to mic up my Acoustic grand piano.

I thought they would sound alright ish taking into acount the price, but when I actually got round to using these mics as a pair on the Piano, they sounded awesome!

I started using the C 3000 B as a Vocal mic, I then moved on to Acoustic Guitar where it really does deliver!
Yes, this is also brilliant on Guitar. is there something it\'s not good at? Washing the dishes maybe?

I was not suprised though, because AKG make very good microphones, and the AKG C 3000 B is a perfect example of this.
